The wig that Nene wore in her newest round of interviews received a flurry of insults and mockery on social media. Nene has hired a ghost writer to write this week’s blog to let us know she is laughing along with us, because she is secure in herself and has a sense of humor. No really. That is what her blog says. Read it below.
As a designer, you take risks that sometimes don’t work!
What do designers have to do with you putting the things on your head that you put on you head? Designers didn’t put that thing on your head. You put that thing on your head. You are not a designer.
I think we all can agree the bob wig I wore in my interview didn’t work. I could give you this whole spill about what actually happened that day, but I’d rather not!
It’s ‘spiel’ not ‘spill’. By the way, a spiel is generally considered a sort of false excuse for something or deceptive advertisement for a product. Your ghost writer is only half a standard deviation above you on the IQ bell curve it would seem. It’s still a significant improvement. I’m dying to hear what could have happened in your busy day which forced you to place that thing on your head. Was no scarf lying about? A hat? a flower pot? What on earth could have happened on that day to make this your only option.
I will say this though: A wig comes off, so it’s a good thing I am comfortable in the skin I am in. Why let little things like a wig or makeup define me?
Are you asking us? That is a question you need to answer. What is it with the blond hair and ivory makeup obsession. Because that is the exact OPPOSITE of being comfortable in the skin you are in.
I’m one of those girls that lives by my own rules, which is why I am a force to be reckoned with. I’m proud of who I am and all that I’ve accomplished! I have discovered my true self, and I couldn’t be happier, but I have a sense of humor and I must say some of the pictures I saw on social media of my hair were hilarious! My hubby and I fell out of the bed laughing at some of the stuff we saw!
And, now we reach the arrogant and feigned contentment portion of the program. Nobody believes you have “found your true self.” We think that you are trying to transform yourself into Kim Biermann.
P.S. Wearing that wig wasn’t all bad, because the very next day I got a business call from a hair company wanting to do a wig line with me! Cha-Ching! #ByeWig.
I would say that there is no one on the planet that believes this, but then I am reminded of Nene fan who occasionally slip through a hole in the fence here. They believe that your clothing line has sold out, despite the fact it is currently on the clearance rack on HSN. They believe that there are magical fairies that run websites and know everyone on the planet’s “net worth.” So they too will probably believe that anyone is interested “doing a wig line” with you. It would not shock me if someone with a wigline called and offered to let you wear one of their wigs because they were embarrassed for you.
It probably wasn’t Kim Biermann though. You know, the person you made fun of for years for wearing wigs. Remember when the phrase “Bye, Wig” was coined by you to make fun of people who wear blond wigs? And now all of social media is mocking you for the same thing? #Karma
Ha! “A wig comes off….” Is she in the habit of taking her wig off…in public? Just a piece of advice, Nene. A hat is less shocking.
Whatever was under the wig would have been less shocking as well
Sounds like the wig mocking REALLY got to her. Which means she actually thought that thing looked good. It probably didn’t occur to her that the company offering her a wig line is totally bogus. Love that she felt the need to tell us how proud of herself she is with all that she has accomplished. (AGAIN!)
ITA — Nene thought she was killing it in that Dutch boy wig until she saw the mocking on social media. She knows and we know it.
At least with Nene she doesn’t try to make out that they are NOT wigs! Am I the only one that finds the wigs with black roots bizarre? I mean we all know they are wigs, so why bother?
I have NEVER understood that. For decades we would mock people who needed to get their roots done, now wigs have two inches of imaginary grow out? WTF?

Sorry, you’re not making any sense. Nene has denied multiple times, for years that she wears or would wear wigs when she told Kim repeatedly that “this is a weave” when Kim would ask her why she always mocked her for wearing wigs, calling her “Wig” as an insult, when she wore one too.
Go back and watch previous episodes.
Oh, and PS — Kim’s ridiculous wigs, including the ones with roots, are 10x better than anything Nene has worn. What is bizarre is that people think the fact that Nene’s are *obvious* and *hideous* is better somehow.
I omitted the first half of her blog which was a rundown on all of her accomplisments… 🙂

Thank you for sparing us!
@TT Blessings on you for that!
Ok, now that that particular wig has come off (and I do hope it was burned), can the contoured 5 o’clock shadow make up PLEASE be next? I understand that even less than that horrible wig.
I think it’s stage makeup like she would have worn for Cirque. You’re not supposed to wear it every day, Nene. Looks good to a crowd from far away.
I hear that Martians find her stunning.

Yeah,TheArtistFormerlyKnownAsYoya,
the farther, the better!
If Naynay stood on a stage in Chicago and faced northward, she would be a … uh … STUNNER… in Milwaukee!
“5 o’clock shadow” — I’m howling! And you’re right, that’s just what it looks like. Hahaha
Nene has dealt with pustules on the face because she has large pockmarks. The heavy contouring makeup hides the pits better than most, helps shape whatever is going on with her current nose and lightens her skin tone in her quest to be a white girl like Kim. She is even wearing the light glossy lipstick that Kim often applies.
God, that is so strange! I mean, at first you could laugh it off, but now it’s getting pretty undeniable that Nene is REALLY morphing herself into Kim–physically and otherwise! But Nene can make herself up to look like Kim, wear the best blonde wigs in the world, but I think she’s missing the confidence and happiness that Kim has found. I was never a big Kim fan, but she really does seem content and fulfilled in her life, and she doesn’t sit around, bashing people and being negative all day, making me think she seems pretty confident. And Kim an REALLY laugh at herself.
Haha! I wondered if anyone else noticed that. Everything about this look was off, the two-tone skin, that godawful lipstick that looks to me like it was applied in a manner that would minimize her lip size (the opposite of thin lipped people lining outside their lips for a fuller pout?), but that wig was the crowning glory of EWW. That style is godawful on Lena Durham, but I always thought she kinda wore it ironically. Y’know like ugly christmas sweaters.
LOL @ crowning glory of eww
I think Lena Dunham also doesn’t care about being pretty and fashionable. But Nene clearly does. Please nene just invest in three high quality brown hair wigs so we can all stop being unhappy looking at you.
She looks ridiculous. Seriously. With the “money” that she has, go to a professional hair stylist and get a quality wig or weave. Those blond wigs are the ugliest and tackiest I have ever seen. And what is the deal with that lipstick? She looks more like a clown with Ringling Brothers than a African American female.
You know what? That’s actually really pretty accurate. Scary!
I would add that there are facial treatments (fractal laser), that could help with the pockmarks, but they require down time, reasonable tolerance for pain, and are not inexpensive. They may also even out or lighten her skin tone. However, I dislike this woman so much that the more she remains hideous, the more I like it. My bad!
Nene is so confident and comfortable in her own skin that she had a nose job, wears foundation at least 5x lighter than her actual skin tone, bleaches what little hair she has on her head blonde & photoshops the dickens out of pictures she posts on Instagram. It’s also why she needs constant validation from those around her and attacks anyone she perceives as receiving more attention than she.
Nailed it!!
yes…
Bravo to this comment
I agree totally with the make up comment. It’s not the 1st time either. It was like that on WWHL when she was on the other week. It’s dark on the bottom of her face and the top is light.
Hulk Hogan is going to sue somebody for that NeNe ish…Whew!!
LOL!!!!
Her lethargic looking “hussben” Gregg Leakes is her ghostwriter. My housekeeper’s son said he knew NeNe when she was black and happy to be nappy.
TT, you said it all right here, “What is it with the blond hair and ivory makeup obsession. Because that is the exact OPPOSITE of being comfortable in the skin you are in.” The self-hate is REAL.
This was beyond evident in the WWHL episode with Kim that aired recently. When Andy showed flashbacks from the first few seasons, NeNe made remarks like “Oh, we looked so bad! We came a loooonnnnng way.” No, you didn’t look bad. You looked like YOU. Seems YOU wasn’t good enough. Now you look like a caricature of you.
The wig screams fragglerock… I really believe that Nene had a bought with alopecia. No hair exists under any of her wigs IMO.
Sry. Not bought. Meant to say that I believe she’s struggling with alopecia.
@Keya….I believe Nene is bald too from trying to hold on to her true self she has lost her hair, hence Kenya calling her ‘Edges”. Alopecia happens when it is a medical reason for losing hair or genetics..When you have bleached our hair until you have none, that is called STUPID. Her friend Tamar Braxton is bald too. Stop being cheap and get your damn hair done Nene, dayunm.
You just made me laugh. So correct..Fragglerock, still laughing…
Now , we must remember the phrase I’m rich BITCH & she is so secure with her true self she was full of bullshit about the wig ! Someone lied like hell to her when she asked how she looked that day !!! LOL
Can someone please let her know that everything that we needed to know about her clothing line was explained when HSN put her on the air at midnight!! I highly doubt they sell out a lot of clothing lines at two in the morning. Isn’t that the bad infomercial hour?
We are suppose to be excited that Nene spent a year designing a tank top?
No we are supposed to be jealous of her success. Please follow the printed program her tards are passing through the fence. 🙂

Ok…I have never watched an ounce of that “The People’s Couch” show, but I’d love to see them do a multi-shot of ppl’s reactions when that hairline horror appeared on the screen for the first time.
I have been mocking the idiots that watch The People’s Couch since it premiered. Then I watch it one night. It was sort of fucking hysterical. But I was deep into happy hour.

It’s pretty funny. I thought I’d hate it, but it sucked me in.
We have watched it since the beginning when it was just a 30 minute program, and we enjoyed it since at least one of them typically says what we thought as we watched. Most of the couch sitters are a riot.
I mocked people who watched it too until I happened upon an episode. I don’t seek it out but when it’s on, I love it. It’s fucking hilarious, and the muscley gay in the gay trio could get the business. I love different families except for the father with like 3 daughters or something. They’re not as funny as the other groups.
Nene is starting to look like a photographic negative of her true self. With the makeup that is as someone said 5X’s lighter than her skin tone and all those ridiculous blonde wigs, is she trying to turn inside out? If Nene really realized how bad the wig looked, why did she wait to blog? She should have started tweeting during the show like so many other housewives do. Something to the effect of OMG what was I thinking with that wig? Then just maybe we would have bought the story that she realized how bad the wig was before the bad press.
ummmm, a photographic negative of herself…..I am so done!!!!…that is to funny…hahahaaaa
OMG Hannah, I spit out my cocktail LMAO at your first sentence.
I love your recap, TT. Still laughing. Obviously, Nene was channeling her strong Dutch girl. The rate she is going, her face and hair will be completely white and the rest of her not. Why does she insists on that horrible bubblegum pink lipstick? Maybe she wants to look like Courtney Stodden.
I would say someone like Whoopi Goldberg is comfortable in their own skin, but Nene is anything but.
I cannot with her claiming to be “everything” without a moment of training, education or experience in business. She’s not only full of herself. . .she’s full of shit.
I know most people are going to say that I have lost my mind, but that wig look better on her than what she currently wears to me. She should go back to season 1 wig or extension look.
IF there had been some way to sort of ease us into that wig….it probably does beat some of the others. But it was just suddenly THERE!

She should go bald.
Two window licking Nenetards would like us to know….
1) All anyone is talking about from the show is Nene’s wig. Which to them someone means she’s ….I don’t know really. To mean it means she’s the laughing stock.
2) I am just jealous of Nene’s success.
giggles.
Tamara, your replies to the window lickers are as funny as your articles; you always bring laughter to my day! Long time no post.
Really do not believe that any of Nene fans see you as jealous person or jealous of her or anyone, why? Actually, you neither the commenters know Nene personally, now do we?
As a fan I will agree the wig and makeup was a bit much, simply ridiculous however I’m not hating because I’m sure several of us have had a bad hair, makeup or outfit day!!!
Must agree…You are simply hilarious!!!
#Giggles
If Nene’s Miss Swan wig is not addressed on “The Soup” this weekend I will have lost all respect for Joel McHale. Nene looka like a man!
If I had no earthly idea who she was and saw that photo for the first time, I would say she tucks. You’re right. She looks like a man. Maybe the ghost of Michael Jackson is starting to posess her.
@tulsateacher
YES!!!!
Oh, thank god I’m not the only one thinking this. I was starting to get worried. 😉
I just watched a Mad TV skit with Ms Swan on You Tube. Nene stole her wig and dyed it blonde!
My husband came home from work & said Nene & her wig were the topic of conversation for 2 days! BTW: 100% of his crew is male!
Well, there you go.
Cynthia did give us a heads up about Nene’s make up and wig..See, Cynthia has always been a true friend..Of course a wig line would call Nene up, Between her and Sherrie Shepard they both can keep all the ‘church ladies” stylish…But maybe Nene’s long story has something to do with an up and coming role in some scripted Bravo show..Like ummm, I don’t know … Ratchet Hobos, that would explain the 5 o clock shadowish. At any rate I guess this is what Rich Bitch/tv star/Broadway star/ reality big shoots cashing Donald Trump checks are wearing…Maybe Greg was so busy with his real estate business…since that is/was his occupation he didn’t have time to flat iron her wig.
I think this wig is much better than that ugly longer curled one, but this is still bad. To me, her hair was best on The New Normal.
I don’t know why I’ve never noticed the 5 o’clock shadow thing. I didn’t even understand what you were all talking about. Then I went back and looked at the picture. It’s all I notice now!
She’s so busy being fabulous & successful, I’m amazed she had time to blog all about a wig.
She doesn’t write her blogs anymore. She goes to a lot of trouble to pretend that she doesn’t watch the show anymore and just reads social media after the show (where she has blocked everyone that doesn’t kiss her ass) and then writes the blog. But really, she just pays someone to list all of her “accomplishments” and the person says things like, “Um you might want to explain that wig” and Nene says, “you handle it.”
Nene Leakes is not comfortable in her own skin. Or laughing at herself. Her ghostwriter is just doing the best she can.
I thought you were just being funny when you said her Nene clothes were on clearance. I checked him and lots of her clothes are on the clearance rack. That cold shoulder tunic she was hyping about being sold out is on clearance too. Please do one of your snarky funny posts on this.
I think I already did. I remember the tards coming to tell me I was wrong and she sold out of everything. lol.

Tamara,
GOOGLE HE-MAN! LMAO!
Google “he man” when you get a minute..
Love your blog. Read all the time, but rarely comment. Just have to say I chuckle each and every time you reference the bell curve and someone’s placement on it in terms of standard deviations! LOLz
The wigs are horrible.
But the makeup….the top half of her face is whitened to yolanda color. And the bottom looks like she has five o’clock shadow. She looks like fred flintstone. The big white circles under the eyes seems to be a trend. But it’s more evident on her than anyone else. Does she own a mirror??
Hey rich bitch nene, pay the money you promised to Detroit school children.
If you don’t have it maybe you can borrow it from kenya!!!!!! You clearly wrote a check, your ass can’t cover
The wig…I thought her wig looked like one of my granddaughters Barbie doll hair that she had chopped off. This has to be the worst wig I have ever seen on anyone! Hmmm, maybe those Halloween wigs are pretty bad too. Nene, give the ultra blonde a break, its not working, and your make up looks like a mask.
“No tea, no shade” tho?
Nene is a nasty canker sore that hurts a lot, is hard to get rid of, and you can’t control. Don’t ever believe her bs or phaedra s either.They believe their Apparel is witty! What are your mouths for, bitches?
And Nene is still Winning and You hate it Lol
SEE? I told you the Nenetards were real! It boggles the mind.

Eeew, Tamara! They snotted your windows, too!
It may be time to install iron fences and maybe electrify them. Sure, it will shock them, BUT it might also jumpstart the Nenetard’s ‘brains’.
(Just leave fans running, because some inevitably will run around with smokey heads after their hair went afire.)
What is she winning?
She also went on Facebook to comment how she can laugh at herself too
I just saw Nene on a rerun of The Real, and I can’t believe that she really thinks ANYONE would want to be her. She is delusional!
@BH Wannabe
“What is she winning?”
Is there an award for Fugliest Wig in History?
Phaedra thinks ducks are yellow? Ducklings, maybe.And they swim in pools? I think Phaedra needs to read her encyclopedia, and Shut Up!
